MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Hurricane Lorenzo lashed Mexico's Gulf coast on Thursday, packing 80 mph (130 kph) winds and drenching the already waterlogged state of Veracruz with heavy rain as its eye approached the port of Tuxpan.
Lorenzo, which strengthened to a Category 1 hurricane on Thursday evening, could grow fiercer before it makes landfall in the early hours of Friday but should weaken rapidly after than, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.
